A SHORT tune ago word was given out by an ofiuial of the General Land Office that more liberal rulings regarding des- ert land entries would be made to facili- tate the reclamation of this class of the public domain. This ruling has been pro- mu'gated and it's liberality IS OH behalf ot the department and opposed to the settler It requires a close adherence to the law and former regulations concern ing the details of entry and final proof, and requires in addition to the possession of personal knowledge of the character of the land, the support of two witnesses equally familiar with it. The declaration must be made before the Register and Receiver, or before the Judge or clerk of a court of record in the county in which the lands so selected are sit- uated. The applicant must acquire clear right to the use of sufficient water to irrigate the whole tract entered, and to keep It irrigated and a failure to acquire water forfeits his rights The source and volume of water supply, how acquir- ed and how maintained, and the capacity ot the ditches, their number and length on each legal subdivision must be specif IcaIy shown; applicant and witnesses must eacf state in full what has been done in the matter of reclamation and improvement, from their own personal Knowledge, and state that they have seeu the land effectually irrigated. The whole tract and each subdivision must be actually irrigated. In tact, the tract must be all put under cultivation within the three years limit and more none, expended than the land is worth aftel the completion of title. This ruling gives the control of desert lands directl, into the hands of meu of means, for tn, poor settler cannot afford to incur tn, expense of bringing the land all unde cultivation in so short time and pa, the cost of an expensive water right.
 His land costs him $1 .25 per acre; hi water right $500 per acre; his ditches clearing and breaking the land, and put ting in crop fully $I5. % more per acre, cash expenditure of e2l % per acre with out counting fences, tuildings and nur serv stock for his orchards and vineyard
 The settler who asp es to the posses sion of :. section of land must be wort from s15, 900 to s2O, ,OOO to pass success fully through such an expensive ordeal which shows the extreme ''liberality" ( the new ruling.

ALTHOUGH midsummer is the worst season in the whole year for strangers to visit southern Arizona, yet an unusual number are arriving to look at the coun- try with view to investment. Fall, win ter and springtime are the best seasons III Arizona and our pleasant climate then gives them a taste of perfection they have not experienced elsewhere. In the sum- mer season, harvesting is over and per haps some of the farmers are preparing for second crop. W hile'others are taking rest from their labors during the warm spell. Strangers are invited to come at almost any season it may be convenient to them, but they will derive much bet ter idea of the advantages of the country by coming at almost any other time of the year than midsummer.

WHILE this portion of Arizona can of fer the best possible inducements to set tiers, there are the best of reasons why men without means should not attempt to experiment too rashly with farms that are made productive and valuable only after considerable outlay for clearing, fencing, building and irrigating, besides the original cost. The settler must ex. pect to make considerable outlay fol the first two or three years, after which, by judicisus- management, a modest ill. come will begin to repay him, which wil increase with coming years into hand some proportions.

' A PALPABLE mining fraud that carries with its speculative disaster lasting stigma upon the fair fame of the State or Territory in which the wildcat" pro- perties are situated, loses its distinct ively private and individual character and becomes more or less public matter that affects all interests in the compro- missed section. It's perpetrator may say "It's nobpdy's business whether or not he heeces some eredulous man of wealth who believed in the honesty of his repre- sentations, but this is a grave mistake
 Every mine owner in the Territory is di- rectly affected by the transaction that de- tracts from it's good reputation, and all such crooked schemes work irreparable injury. The usual method is to partly develop mine to bring it to deceptive appearance of richness and then organize q company with anywhere from one tt ten millions capital and subsidize a few newspapers to boom" the property un til the projector can unload his propor tion of the stock for handsome figure The days of tswildcat mining specula tion are said to have passed by i'll Ari zono, yet new and then the blossoms O fraud may be seen to crop out where | least expected. Good, reliable mines d, not find it necessary to hunt investor
 and place seductive pictures of hiddel wealth before them to tempt their ava rice. For the good name honestly earn ed by Pinal county we trust none other
 will be urged upon their attention.

THE Phenix newspapers claim to pos sess information that perpetual injunc- tion has been placed on the Florence Ca- nal by the United States, restraining them from taking any water out of the Gila liver. If our neighbors had paused to consider the fact that there Is no Fed eral Judge in the Territory and has not been for several weeks, they would have made further inquiry before making such an absurd assertion. A perpetual in- junction is issued only after full and impartial inquiry into the matters per taining thereto, and there has been no official cognizance taken of the subject Tn question. The rumor probably arose from the fact that the United States at- torney had received instructions from Washington to enjoin the canal company from depriving the Pima Indians, fifteen miles down the river, from receiving followed agent R. G Wheeler's efforts at retaliation for real or fancied wrongs by certain citizens of Florence, and is a legacy of his vindictive character. The whole matter is in course of amicab,e adjustment, in which the canal com pany guarantees the Indians perpet- ual supply of water equal to that they now possess. Agent Howard, the D S. attorney, and other officials have given their cordial ndorsemen to the com pany's propusition and the result will be | the restraining writ will never be asked for. There is plenty of water for the Indians; for all existing canals, and f'r half dozen more that will come id the future, aud we do not for moment i'm agine that this great government will ex. ert its powerful forces to crush out young enterprises that add to the public pros perity and Happiness. isi 3of eif ;

The French daily newspaper lis not, as
d rule. an attractive object to behold. Il
Is invariably four-pagc sheet, set up in
coarse and uncomely type. studded with
advertisements displayed with an eye
to show, but. certainly without thought
Of symmetry or good taste. and printed
with whitley brown ink ON paper of good
quality but poor appearance. There is
no daily i'm Paris whereof the reading
matter would fill more than one page OF
an average New York daily, and the con-
tents Of some would not cover one-third
Of that space. Altogether. looking at the
average specimen of Partisan journalism,
one would fancy that French newspapers
are scarcely paying" institutions.
The contents of the great French
dailies are tolerably alike in character
and order. First, the eye lights upon q
political leader, then uIon half column
or so of fashionable chit-cliat, and finally
upon a satirical sketch Of some prc.ni-
nent individual or upon description of
some notable incident of the week. On
the second page may be found an out-of-
town letter, a column or SO of extracts
from ''exchange" papers, enlivened with
brief comments, column of local intel
ligence. laconically rehearsed, a theatre
cal or a musical critique, some foctlight
gossip and some racing notes-when
there are races. Add to this, the invari-
able fcuilleton, or continued story, and
one has enumerated the elements of the
ordinary Partisan morning Journal
New York Times.
